Except Diamante

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander, 2003 Mitsubishi Montero Sport, 2003 Mitsubishi Montero, 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer, and 2003 Mitsubishi Galant. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. If using scan tool, connect scan tool to OBD-II Data Link Connector (DLC) located below instrument panel, to right of steering column (except Montero Sport) or left of steering column (Montero Sport). See Fig 1-Fig 7 . If using voltmeter, disconnect TP sensor connector. See Fig 8-Fig 12 . Connect a test harness set between TP sensor connector and TP sensor. See Fig 13-Fig 15 . Connect voltmeter leads to appropriate test harness terminals. See THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE TERMINALS  table. Go to next step.
  2. Turn ignition on. Using scan tool or voltmeter, check TP sensor output voltage. TP sensor output voltage should be within standard value. See THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE  table. If TP sensor voltage is not within specifications, go to next step.
  3. Loosen TP sensor mounting bolts. Turn TP sensor body until TP sensor output voltage is within specified range. See Fig 16 and Fig 17 . Hold TP sensor in position and tighten TP sensor mounting bolts. Turn ignition off.
